the cultures, customs, crafts, and skills of

To All North Carolinians:
On behalf of the entire staff of the North Carolina State Fair and the
North Carolina Department of Agriculture, I want to invite you to exhibit
at and attend the 1971 North Carolina State Fair.
Each year the North Carolina State Fair is one of the state's most educa-tional,
enjoyable and colorful events. Thanks to your participation, it
is always one of the top agricultural, educational and industrial fairs
in the country. We are very proud of our North Carolina State Fair be-cause
it means much to North Carolina.
This year promises to be a trend-setter for future direction of the State
Fair, The entire field crops area will be given to the "Wonderful World
of Soybeans". The complete industry, from soybean production to the pro-cessing
of synthetic foods from soybeans will be highlighted.
Recent innovations in free entertainment on the fairgrounds will be further
expanded with a wide array of puppet shows, petting zoos, and name bands
providing regular shows free to all fairgoers throughout the full nine-day
event.
This year more than ever, the North Carolina State Fair will be an event
to remember. I want to personally invite you to participate as an exhibitor
or just a spectator to enjoy the fair. You are always welcome.
With all good wishes.
Cordially,

printed forms provided for that purpose, before the closing date for entries
in the department. No article or animal will be entitled to space or con-sidered

department and class and exhibit tag with corresponding numbers will be
issued. This tag must be securely attached to the exhibit and must remain

All exhibitors are urged to personally bring their exhibits to the Fail'
and enjoy the educational and recreational advantages of the annual ex-'
position. However, exhibits may be shipped or mailed to: MANAGER,
N. C. STATE FAIR, P. O. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C, 27607, and they will be!
carefully handled, officially entered, tagged, and otherwise treated in the!
same manner as previously described. They will be given the same con
sideration with regard to display and judging as exhibits personally!

All exhibits shipped or mailed MUST BE PREPAID. No transportation'
charges for express, postage, freight or drayage will be paid by the Fair.'

class and premium number under which they have been previously enteredJ
They should be shipped or mailed at least a week or 10 days prior to the ''"^
opening of the Fair. The management will not be responsible for delayed
shipments which arrive at the Fair too late to be considered in the judging.
All carload shipments by freight, for exhibition pui-poses, should be
billed as follows: FOR EXHIBIT, N. C. STATE FAIR, CAMP POLK,
N. C, c/o S.A.L. RAILWAY. Exhibits so billed will be delivered to the
Fairgrounds without extra switching charges. Attention of exhibitors is
called to tariff rules, governing the shipment of certain types of articles for
exhibition at expositions and fairs, and providing for free return of such
exhibits when accompanied by a certificate from the Manager of the Fair
certifying that such shipment was on exhibition and ownership of same has
not changed. Intending exhibitors should consult their local freight agenti
for particulars governing Fair shipments, as some types of exhibit material
are not returned free and other conditions enter in if shipment is not re-turned
direct. If your local agent is not able to give you full particulars,
write the Manager of the State Fair.
Division Directors and Department Superintendents will have full author-ity
over allocation of space, and will have direct supervision of all exhibits
which are considered on exhibition as a part of the Fair's attractions, sub-ject

educational values of the Fair. Livestock able to be led or driven, or which
will follow, must participate in parades and group exhibitions as directed
by the Department Superintendent.
All livestock must be cared for by the exhibitor except as noted in the
Junior Dairy Cattle and Market Cattle shows. Stalls and pens will be
furnished bedding before the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter exhibitors
will be required to furnish their own bedding and keep all stalls and pens
clean. Feed and straw will be sold on the grounds at prevailing prices.
When exhibit tags are issued by the Entry Department for each article
entered, a stub with a duplicate number will be given the exhibitor to serve
as his claim check to recover and secure the release of his exhibit. Claim
checks should be guarded carefully, since Department Superintendents and
Directors are not allowed to release any exhibitit without presentation of the
exhibit tag stub. If the claim check is lost, such loss should be reported
promptly and it will be necessary for the exhibitor to furnish the Director
of the Entry Department proof of ownership of the article on exhibit.

till fter the end of the Fair will be considered to have been abandoned and
jrill become the property of the State Fair.
The Fair management reserves the right to reject any exhibit which does
lot reflect merit and which would not be a credit to both the exhibitor and
he Fair. Also, the right is reserved to reject exhibits which are deemed
>bjectionable or unsuitable for exhibition. All entries are accepted condi-ionally,
pending inspection of the article or animal to be exhibited. Any
irticle or animal which proves to be misrepresented or falsely classed will

i)ut may not sell any article or animal from their exhibit space without a
)ermit from the manager. The distribution of advertising matter which
onflicts in any manner with a concession sold by the Management is pro-libited.
Commercial exhibitors and concessionaires are responsible for keeping
he space in and around their exhibits, including unused space, aisles and
oadways, clean and free of rubbish. An area of 10 feet around each exhibit
30oth and concession stand must be thoroughly cleaned by the exhibitor or

;he Fair manager.

except in cases of protest in writing, with strong evidence of fraud or
violation of the rules of the Fair. Protests must be filed with the Division
Superintendent not later than noon of the day following the award, and
must be accompanied by a protest fee of $5.00 which will be retained by
the Fair if the protest is not sustained. The Division Superintendent will
13
appoint a committee to consider the protest and all interested parties wil'
be notified of the time of the hearing and will be given an opportunity t<
be heard. The miles of the International Association of Fairs and Ex
positions governing appeals will be those of the North Carolina Fair.
Judges will not award premiums to any article or animal because of iti
mere presence. It must be individually worthy. It is not the policy of tht
Fair to encourage indifferent production of any kind, or to distribut
premiums equally among exhibitors. No premium will be awarded to anj
exhibit that does not possess high intrinsic merit.
Unless otherwise specified in the Department Rules and Regulations, NC
EXHIBITOR MAY WIN MORE THAN TWO PREMIUMS IN ANY ONE
INDIVIDUAL CLASS, AND NOT MORE THAN ONE PREMIUM I^

their adjudications, or who publicly expresses disapproval of the decisioi
of the judges, will be excluded from further competition and any premiums
previously won will be forfeited.
Fraud or deception as to breeding, or in any other form, will be e»
posed and the exhibitor guilty of such violation will be excluded fron
further participation in the Fair, and all premiums previously won will b(
forfeited.
Premiums will be paid only on the basis of the records of the judginj
reports, which will be signed by the judge and by the Department Superin
tendent or Director. Ribbons will be securely attached to the articles upor
which they were awarded, if possible, but the ribbons have no value in tht
payment of premiums since they may become detached and find their waj
on to the wrong exhibit.
Entries made in wrong classes may be reclassed by the Departmen
Superintendent, BUT ONLY IF SUCH RECLASSIFICATION IS MADE
IN THE OFFICE OF, AND WITH. THE APPROVAL OF, THE DIREC
TOR OF THE ENTRY DEPARTMENT. Records must be changed wher
entries are reclassed. If the records are altered and the entry departmen'
files are not changed, premiums will be withheld.
Judges, when requested, may give the reasons for their decisions em
bracing the value and desirable qualities of the exhibits to which they hav«
awarded premiums.
Judges will not award premiums or ribbons to any article or animal thai
does not qualify for one of the classes in the State Fair Premium List.
Premiums will be paid to winning exhibitors as soon after the awards art
made as it is possible to compile and check all reports. Premiums no
collected during the Fair will be mailed to the exhibitor at the post offict

In selecting Horticultural products for exhibit, choose only those speci-
(mens that are of uniformly good quality, form and color, true to type, and
''''iffree from all insect and disease blemishes, and free from cuts and bruises.
Premiums offered for the best collection of fruits or vegetables will not be
awarded for a mere pile or for the greatest number of varieties, BUT
ImAINLY on the basis of quality. Do not knock or shake fruit
l^from the tree, but pick each specimen by hand, taking care not to pull out
the stem. Products should be exhibited as nearly as possible in their natural
state, and no preference will be given in the judging for highly polished
fruits or vegetables.
Entries of Commercial containers of apples and sweet potatoes should be
graded to uniform marketable size, high color, smoothness, trueness to type,
freedom from cuts and bruises, and free from insect and fungus blemishes.
They should be properly packed and faced in standard containers.
Entries of "Collections" and under "Any Other Variety" must be cor-rectly
named by the exhibitor. In the nomenclature of fruits, the names
adopted by the American Pomological Society shall rule, and no variety will
be accepted that has not been admitted to their catalogue, except in the
case of seedlings never before exhibited.

Exhibits and Exhibitors
The Fair management vvdll use diligence to insure the safety of livestock
entered for exhibition or display, but under no circumstances will it be re-sponsible
for loss, injury, theft or damage by fire, lightning, wind, or any
other agency, to such livestock on exhibition or display.
All livestock on exhibition must be cared for by the exhibitor (except
entries in Special Junior Dairy Cattle Exhibits.) All stalls (except entries in
Special Junior Dairy Cattle Exhibits.) All stalls and pens will be well bedded
one time by the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter, exhibitors will be required to
furnish their own bedding.
The Fair reserves the right to discriminate against both excessive obesity,
which cannot be a profitable condition for breeding animals, and excessive
leanness, in which condition animals are unfit for exhibition.
No barren animals will be eligible in breeding classes. An affidavit that
an animal is a breeder must be furnished on request.
All cattle must be halter-broken. No dairy bull over one year of age will
be allowed on the grounds without a ring in his nose and must not be led
from his stall except by a staff, rope or chain attached to or leading
through the ring. Boars over one year of age must have had their tusks
removed.

Exhibitors must keep their animals uncovered between the hours of 9:00
a.m. and 5:00 p.m. each day of the Fair. Premium money will be withheld
from exhibitors violating this rule, except in case of sickness of animals or
inclement weather, and then only on authorization of the Superintendent.
A great educational feature of the Fair is the exhibitions and parades of
approved livestock by breeds and ages. Exhibitors refusing for any cause
not meeting with the approval of the management to lead out animals for
parade will not only forfeit all premiums won, but will be barred from
further participation in the Fair, and will be required to remove their
stock from the Fairgrounds within six hours after such refusal, and will
forfeit any fees paid.
Misrepresentation as to breeding and irregularity in showing will be
exposed and any premium won by such exhibitor will be withheld. Certifi-cates
of registration must be shown on demand of the Livestock Superin-tendent.
Any artificial means of removing or remedying physical defects or con-formation
in exhibition animals, such as lifting or filling under the skin,
will be considered fraud and deception. All animals giving evidence of such
treatment will be barred from exhibition at this Fair, and at all Fairs
holding membership in the International Association of Fairs and Expo-sitions.
Exhibitors must keep the space in the rear of their stalls or pens, and
the alleyways in the exhibition halls, clear and clean. All litter must be
thrown where directed by the Superintendent or Directors.
Animals must be transported to and from the Fairgrounds at the expense
of the exhibitor. The Fair management will not pay any charges for ex-press,
freight or drayage. To avoid switching charges and delay, rail
shipments should be billed as follows: "For Exhibit, N. C. State Fair,
Camp Polk, N. C. c/o Seaboard Air Line Railroad." Shipments via express
or motor transport should be addressed to the exhibitor, or to: Livestock
Superintendent, N. C. State Fair, Raleigh, N. C.
Exhibitors are responsible for ascertaining when their stock will be
judged. Animals must be in the show ring promptly after being called.
Exhibitors failing to comply with this rule may have their animals excluded
from competition.
Judges and Awards
NO EXHIBITOR MAY RECEIVE MORE THAN TWO PREMIUM
MONEYS IN ANY ONE CLASS. However, ribbons will be awarded
exactly as the animals are placed by the judge. EXAMPLE: An exhibitor
makes three entries in a class, and his animals place "First," "Second"
and "Third." He would receive only the first and second premium moneys,
but all three ribbons. Then, the owner of the animal placing "Fourth"
would receive the third-place premium money and the fourth-place ribbon;
and so on down the line.
The decision of the judges will be final, and no appeal will be considered
except in case of protest. The rules of the International Association of
Fairs and Expositions govern appeals at the North Carolina State Fair.
Protests must be in writing and filed with the General Livestock Super-
64
ntendent by noon of the day following the award, accompanied by a protest
'ee of $5.00 which will be retained by the Fair if the protest is not sus-
;ained by an impartial Protest Committee appointed by the General Live-stock
Superintendent.
No unworthy animal will be awarded a premium. Where there are fewer
mimals shown in the class than the number of premiums offered, the judge
nay, at his discretion, award a prize or prizes of such grade as the animal
)r animals deserve.
Where there is only one entry in a class, second premium will be awarded
inless in the opinion of the judge the animal is sufficiently meritorious
IS to justify the full award as provided for.
Herdsmen's Contests
Special prizes will be awarded in contests for herdsmen, shepherds and
aretakers of animals in all livestock departments. All herdsmen will
lutomatically be considered entrants and no special entry is required.
The contests will start at a time designated by each Department.
The following score card will serve as the basis for the judges in the
herdsmen's contests making their decisions:
Points

PUREBRED DAIRY CATTLE ASSOCIATION
Show Ring Code of Ethics
Believing it is in the best interest of all breeders of Registered Cattle to
maintain a reputation of integrity and to continue to present a whole-some
and progressive image in the show ring, the Purebred Dairy Cattle
Association of America lists herewith those practices which are considered
unacceptable in presenting Registered dairy animals in the show ring. The
use of such practices or procedures is, therefore, considered unethical in the
showing of Registered cattle.
1. Misrepresenting the age of the animal for the class in which it is
shown.
2. Balancing the udder by any abnormal means including the use of a
mechanical contrivance, or the injection of fluid or drugs.
3. Setting the teats and/or occluding (sealing the ends) with a mechanical
contrivance or with the use of a chemicaf preparation.
4. Treating or massaging the udder or its attachments with an irritant or
counter-irritant. The use of common products as fly spray, ointment
or liniment in excess to the extent that it is irritating is included
as an irritant unless required to reduce edema at time of calving.
5. Treating or massaging any part of the body internally or externally
with an irritant, counter-irritant, or other substance to temporarily
straignten a weak back or loin or to produce unnatural animation.
6. Minimizing the effects of crampiness by feeding or injecting drugs, de-pressants
or applying packs or using any artificial contrivance or
therapeutic treatment excepting normal exercise.
7. Blocking the nerves to the foot to prevent limping by injecting drugs.
8. Striking the animal to cause swelling in a depressed area.
9. Surgery of any kind performed to change the natural contour or ap-pearance
of the animal's body, hide, or hair. Not included is the re-moval
of teats and horns, clipping of hair and trimming of hooves.
10. Insertion of foreign material under the skin.
11. Changing the color of hair at any point, spot or area on the animal's
body including the blackening of a gray spot.
12. The use of alcoholic beverages in the feed or administered as a drench.
13. Administration of a drug of any kind or description internally or ex-ternally
prior to entering the show ring, except for treating a recognized
disease or injury and for tranquilizing bulls two years old and over.
For the purposes of these rules, the term "drug" shall mean—any sub-stance,
the sale, possession or use of which is controlled by license
under federal, state or local laws or regulations and any substance
commonly used by the medical or veterinary professions which affect
the circulatory, respiratory or central nervous system of a cow.
14. Criticizing or interfering with the judge or other exhibitors while
in the ring.
In keeping with the basic philosophy of the Association, ethics is an indi-vidual
responsibility. Violators are subject to the disciplinary provisions of
the By-Laws of their respective Breed Associations.

Health Regulations
Health regulations of the Veterinary Division of the N. C. Department of
Agriculture will be strictly enforced. BE SURE TO READ THESE UN-
)ER "RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE LIVESTOCK DIVISION"
)efore entering or competing in this department.
Every precaution should be taken on the part of the exhibitors to use
ndividual utensils in feeding and watering cattle. Common water troughs
ire forbidden. All cars and trucks used for transportation of cattle to the
fair should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected before use. Vehicles
egularly used for the transportation of animals are considered "exposed"
premises under the health regulations of the Veterinary Division.
MILKING PARLOR
A modern milking parlor with trained operators is available for exhib-tors
with lactating cows. This facility, initially sponsored and constructed
jy the North Carolina Purebred Dairy Cattle Association and the N. C.
State Fair, is an outstanding facility for presenting to the milk consuming
public the story of the production of clean wholesome milk. The impressions
"ormed by people are very important in their decisions to drink milk and
these impressions are not good when they see cows milked in dirty feed
pails in the barn. Thus, exhibitors are urged and expected to cooperate in
using the milking parlor during the fair. Exhibitors are urged to wear white
boats while milking. If exhibitor does not use the milking parlor, then cows
must be milked with machines or into pa//s approved by Wake County Health
Department officials. The parlor will be in operation during the Fair week,
and exhibitors can milk at any time during the day or night, but are urged to
use a standard milking time if possible. The net returns from the sale of milk
produced in the parlor is used for the N. C. Purebred Dairy Cattle Scholarship
in Dairy Husbandry.
PRODUCTION CREDIT FOR MILK BASE ALLOTMENT
Milk base allotment will be granted by the N. C. Milk Commission for
the production of milking cows being exhibited at N. C. State Fair. The
average daily production for the number of days away from the farm will
be used. Production data should be certifie

Greetings,
Welcome to the 104th North Carolina
State Fair.
The fair is a meeting place for people
from all walks of Tar Heel life. It reflects
the cultures, customs, crafts, and skills of
five million people who are proud to call them-selves
North Carolinians.
The 1971 State Fair was designed with
you in mind. So, enjoy yourself and learn
more about North Carolina.
Cordially,

To All North Carolinians:
On behalf of the entire staff of the North Carolina State Fair and the
North Carolina Department of Agriculture, I want to invite you to exhibit
at and attend the 1971 North Carolina State Fair.
Each year the North Carolina State Fair is one of the state's most educa-tional,
enjoyable and colorful events. Thanks to your participation, it
is always one of the top agricultural, educational and industrial fairs
in the country. We are very proud of our North Carolina State Fair be-cause
it means much to North Carolina.
This year promises to be a trend-setter for future direction of the State
Fair, The entire field crops area will be given to the "Wonderful World
of Soybeans". The complete industry, from soybean production to the pro-cessing
of synthetic foods from soybeans will be highlighted.
Recent innovations in free entertainment on the fairgrounds will be further
expanded with a wide array of puppet shows, petting zoos, and name bands
providing regular shows free to all fairgoers throughout the full nine-day
event.
This year more than ever, the North Carolina State Fair will be an event
to remember. I want to personally invite you to participate as an exhibitor
or just a spectator to enjoy the fair. You are always welcome.
With all good wishes.

Quality—Not Quantity
In selecting Horticultural products for exhibit, choose only those speci-
(mens that are of uniformly good quality, form and color, true to type, and
''''iffree from all insect and disease blemishes, and free from cuts and bruises.
Premiums offered for the best collection of fruits or vegetables will not be
awarded for a mere pile or for the greatest number of varieties, BUT
ImAINLY on the basis of quality. Do not knock or shake fruit
l^from the tree, but pick each specimen by hand, taking care not to pull out
the stem. Products should be exhibited as nearly as possible in their natural
state, and no preference will be given in the judging for highly polished
fruits or vegetables.
Entries of Commercial containers of apples and sweet potatoes should be
graded to uniform marketable size, high color, smoothness, trueness to type,
freedom from cuts and bruises, and free from insect and fungus blemishes.
They should be properly packed and faced in standard containers.
Entries of "Collections" and under "Any Other Variety" must be cor-rectly
named by the exhibitor. In the nomenclature of fruits, the names
adopted by the American Pomological Society shall rule, and no variety will
be accepted that has not been admitted to their catalogue, except in the
case of seedlings never before exhibited.

No awards will be made for unworthy specimens, where quality is lacking,
or where any of the Rules and Regulations governing these exhibits are
disregarded.
No article entered for competition in any class will be permitted to
compete for a premium an any other class. AN EXHIBITOR CANNOT
COMPETE FOR MORE THAN ONE PRIZE IN ANY CLASS.
No exhibitor will be allowed to discuss exhibits with the judges, or to
interfere in any way while the judges are at work.
